Jewelry Gemstones Lapidary

Don at
Headwaters
Lapidary, a gemstone cutter with
impeccable skills and integrity, Don has
been cutting gems for over 41 years and started in his lapidary shop
when it consisted of and old washing machine motor with a sanding
and polishing head mounted on the shaft with an aluminum pan and
foil as a splash shield. It was crude but hey! he was cutting
stones! Now he has numerous saws, grinders, sanders, polishers and
faceting machines. During high school he worked at a rock shop part
time and then full time before trying diamond cutting as a
profession. He earned a Graduate Gemologist diploma from the
Gemological Institute of America in 1980 and has been cutting
colored stones and diamonds as a profession ever since.
